There's more than enough entries, it's just nobody wants to curate them. The back-end of SA is... frustrating...

This might hurt a bit..



while i am very happy to see one, its practically criminal that the "What did trump paint?" thread didn't hit front page.

I hear ya, I really do, it came down to a decision between that one and this one, and I thought this one had more inherently funny images that didn't require you to be in on a reference. Just the expression of the statue was funny in different contexts on its own, and I could use the comments for in-jokes. What did trump paint was just a shade more in-jokey and, you have to admit, really repetitive, so it lost despite being longer.

But it was a tough call which one to devote my time to. If you want to see more Phridays we are always accepting volunteers. Thanks for reading!

Edit- oh and contributing, I just now realized. You do good work. The front page is dumb, but it's also fun and has opened doors for me that would surprise you. So, think about it.

U know, this thread https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3879420 never even got goldmined and it was started by Lowtax and everything. I don't know how this works. Maybe it's too late now.

This case of an intraperitoneal zucchini is unusual, and does raise questions as to how hard one has to push a blunt vegetable to perforate the rectum.

Well luckily the front page comes with a money-back guarantee!

Seriously, you're quibbling with me about which Trump thread was more important? C'mon now. They were both okay, for low-hanging fruit. If it really matters to you come volunteer, and then you can pick the :right: threads.

I'm sorry, I'm just a little frustrated is all. I was under instruction not to feature political threads in phridays and I got hectored into it anyway, then there's another political thread people wanted more, I just can't seem to win.

Thanks! IDK what a contrast match is though so probably whatever you meant was an accident.

That was definitely my favourite photoshop theme to work on, cool source images and simple enough for my low-skill-high-effort style.

I just meant the image contrast for corn guy matched the rest of the image, you got the same grain on a photo and a photo-of-a-print and it really sells it. That and the border to the left of him having a natural cut to it both jumped out at me as very nice touches.

You also did that awesome Daffy duck edit gif, the two together was why you "won".

:bubblewoop: Another Phriday :bubblewoop:

so in an effort to make myself accountable here is the plan for the next two weeks, sneak peak style!

part 2 of fear factory next phriday, then part one of at least 2 articles for the romance cover thread.
if a good thread pops up, or i find one i missed, or ian finds one, or whatever, that'll go in between the romance cover articles.


i guess i should mention i volunteered to help curate as i am a weird internet nerd with free time and photoshop abilities?
anyways this thread, or pm'ng ian or i, would be a good way to suggest threads. or just post a link in byob to bait me into making like, 2 submissions cause i'm trying to not participate overmuch in threads i intend to harvest from.

it's been a blast so far, and i'm glad to help pump a little lifeblood into a classic frontpage feature.

so lets address that animorphs thing. i think i made whatever point i wanted to there, and i was loving blown away to find that rachel is jewish. i read the books as a kid and she's clearly depicted as a blond blue eyed white girl.
the anti semitism comment was almost certainly a silly joke about tusks and nose, but when i did my thing and dug for 5 minutes, besides the insane "aliases" there was also the bit about her dad.

i hope it doesn't kill the thread, but one, it's super hilarious that this is a chain of events, and two, i, never for a single moment, thought you were sincerely doing a racist photoshop.

secondly, you do good work. ian and i both appreciate the effortshops you do.

i got one sentence into explaining animorphs to someone older then me and was like, honestly, gently caress this. i loved the books and show as a kid but i can recolonize that like, tobias the hawk recognizing a supermodels pores but still finding her lovely is hosed up writing.

anyways, thanks!

here is something. we have so many good photoshop threads what comes next is actually a choice.

we can run part 2 of phear phactory, or pocket it for a dry season. the romance cover thread could easy be 2 updates, and if this mixed media thread goes well we might have enough good images by whatever deadline ian needs to submit the update?

regardless, we are legit dedicated to hitting that deadline weekly, now, and of all the currently active forum highlight features this one benefits the most from having a huge amount of things to pick from. honestly, a thread going long enough to produce a 2 part article, or, potentially, 3 part, requires like half the work of 2 separate articles. plus, this means that we can stagger part ones and twos, and feature more good posts.

i may be a post helldumped byob idiot, but of the few things i take seriously, this weird rear end internet thing is one i do actually believe in.

laugh, and the world laughs with you. cry, and you cry alone.

if the merge media thread produces enough we can do that, then another romance cover thread. sorry i didn't scrape a full article worth, my math was bad.

i also think if we do the phear phactory thread for christmas that would be funny as hell, so....

So, are you saying this submission was plagiarized? If so, and your evidence checks out, I'll remove it and ban the poster (from phridays, at Ieast).
